Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone

28 Sep 2012 246
I took so many photos from different viewpoints around the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone, and have ended up just grabbing one. Quite breathtaking scenery with dizzying drops! Distant haze from one of the fires in the park (we saw billowing smoke in several places during our few days there, but saw no flames). Really need to go through so many photos from my wonderful week away. "The Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone is the first large canyon on the Yellowstone River downstream from Yellowstone Falls in Yellowstone National Park. The canyon is approximately 24 miles long, between 800 feet (244m) and 1,200 feet (366m) deep and between one quarter of a mile (.45 km) and three quarters of a mile (1.2 km) wide." en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grand_Canyon_of_the_Yellowstone
